1927 Spring training photograph of two members of the Boston Red in uniform clowning around. While the shorter player is Emory "Topper" Rigney, the taller player (may or may not actually be a player, possibly a circus performer or something like that) would have to be at least seven feet tall as he towers over the normal sized Rigney at 5'9". An unusual photograph we have never seen before and one that presents well with several pinholes from publication being the only major flaws.
